Hymn to Ninkasi (edit) ca.1900 BCE

Born of the flowing waters, Nurtured by the hands of Ninkasi, Crafted in homage to the goddess of Babylon, Her divine touch infuses every sip.

Ninkasi, who bestowed upon us the sacred date syrup, Blending it with the richness of red malt and crystal, Eureka and Contessa, the chosen hops, Contribute their essence to this elixir divine.

Ninkasi, mother of brewing, Enki’s daughter, Ninti’s child, You who stir the depths of the fermentation, Bringing forth the essence of the ages.

Ninkasi, who guides the alchemy of flavor, Mixing the bappir with date honey, Baking it in the oven of creation, Transforming grains into liquid gold.

Ninkasi, who waters the malt with care, Guarded by noble dogs from afar, You who soak the grains in the jar of time, Where waves rise and fall like the tides.

Ninkasi, who spreads the mash with grace, Coolness descending upon the earth, You who hold the sweet wort in your hands, Brewing it with honey and wine divine.

Ninkasi, whose filtering vat sings, Harmonizing with the rhythm of creation, You who pour out the amber nectar, A tribute to the rivers of ancient lore.

In every drop, the spirit of Ninkasi resides, A testament to her wisdom and grace, As we raise our glasses in reverence, To the goddess of beer, to Ninkasi, we raise.
